How To Prevent America’s #1 Disease: Stress

Dani Johnson - www.DaniJohnson.com

Let’s face it, life is fast-paced! We, the people, have busy schedules that determine the shortness of our days. There is work, school, soccer practice, Bible study, and then dinner is somewhere in the middle before bedtime. Routine doctor appointments are not a high priority until symptoms drive you or your loved ones to the waiting room.

After sitting on the examination table, getting swabbed with cotton, lots of questions and tests, many are diagnosed with fighting one common disease: Stress.

Nearly half of all Americans admit stress affects their lives. The other 50% of Americans usually test positive for abnormal levels of anxiety. In fact, many Americans who feel comfortable coping with their worries have been reported to have the same level of stress as if they were standing face to face with a roaring lion. Facts and figures agree: Stress, when undiagnosed and untreated, becomes a deadly disease.

Is your Christian congregation giving you practical ways to reduce the stress levels in your life? Is your local body of believers decreasing, or increasing, your stress? If your weekly fellowship separates every day life from spiritual principles by glazing over relevant topics, like stress and how to eliminate it, then listen as Dani boldly shares how!

What do your stress test results show?

It is time for you to schedule an appointment and have an evaluation. Listen to this Sunday Morning Spiritual Equipping Radio Show to take your stress test. Find out if any adjustments are necessary in your life. What are you waiting for? Your change starts here!

Is Thanksgiving A Pagan Holiday?


Here I go again...  being the party pooper.  But somebody has got to tell the TRUTH!  I shared the truth about Holloween being a pagan holiday with all of my Facebook friends on Holloween.  I didn't post it on my blog, but I will so that you can check that out.   

Now, let's get into the true meaning of Thanksgiving.  Lord knows I love Turkey, Ham, Greens, Dressing, Cranberry Sauce, Gravy, Pie, Macarroni and Cheese and all that GOOD stuff!  But why do we make all this good food on this particular day and celebrate "Thanksgiving"?  Have you ever wondered?

I know you heard the story in school about the pilgrims and the indians and all that.....  blah, blah, blah... I don't even want to go into it.  But have you ever researched it on your own?  We all know you can't just take everything you hear and believe it.  So why do we think everything we learned in school is 100% true or not go deeper to find out the whole story?  

It reminds me of all of the people on Facebook that were sending out the message about Facebook charging people a fee for their account.  I was so tired to seeing the posts and I could not believe how many people were just blindly spreading the message without doing a lick of research.  That's pretty scary if you ask me!

Anyhow, one of my Youtube friends put up 2 good videos about the true pagan meaning of Thanksgiving... and like I said, don't even just take her word for it... do your own research to find out for yourself!  That is if you care enough to do so.  

Wishing you success in Love and Life,

Personal Branding and How Important It Is To Your Marketing Strategy


The American Marketing Association (AMA) defines a brand as a "name, term, sign, symbol or design, or a combination of them intended to identify the goods and services of one seller or group of sellers and to differentiate them from those of other sellers.

Therefore it makes sense to understand that branding is not about getting your target market to choose you over the competition, but it is about getting your prospects to see you as the only one that provides a solution to their problem.

The objectives that a good brand will achieve include:

Delivers the message clearly
Confirms your credibility
Connects your target prospects emotionally
Motivates the buyer
Concretes User Loyalty
To succeed in branding you must understand the needs and wants of your customers and prospects. You do this by integrating your brand strategies through your company at every point of public contact.

Your brand resides within the hearts and minds of customers, clients, and prospects. It is the sum total of their experiences and perceptions, some of which you can influence, and some that you cannot.

A strong brand is invaluable as the battle for customers intensifies day by day. It's important to spend time investing in researching, defining, and building your brand. After all your brand is the source of a promise to your consumer. It's a foundational piece in your marketing communication and one you do not want to be without.

Married Sex Tip: Use Sex To Get Past The Ruts In Your Marriage


I shared this tip today on my PureMaritalPassion Facebook page today....  Join Us!  Let's get passionate about our marriages :)

There will be times in your marriage when careers, family, kids, friends, hobbies and other important tasks will pack your schedule and get in the way of maintaining a good relationship. There will be periods when the two of you are not communicating well and don’t seem to be connecting with each other. When you experience these ruts in your relationship, don’t let sex go by the wayside. Use the time you have together wisely by getting frisky. If your marriage is experiencing a dip, it’ll fall even further if the two of you don’t connect sexually. Instead of abandoning your bedroom activities at the first sign of trouble, use sex to get back on track.

Always wishing you success in Love and Life~

9 Ways To Increase Your Productivity When Working From Home




Nellie Akalp is CEO of CorpNet.com, her second incorporation filing service based on her strong passion to assist small business owners and entrepreneurs in starting and protecting their business. She has formed more than 100,000 corporations and LLCs across the U.S. To learn more about Nellie and see how she can help your business get off the ground quickly and affordably, please visit here.
Whether telecommuting or freelancing, more and more professionals are trading in the cubicle for the home office. We hear all about the perks of the work from home lifestyle — no long commutes, more time with family, conference calls in pajamas, etc. But what about the challenges? It’s not always easy to stay productive in the face of countless distractions.
If you’re working from home, chances are you’re a freelancer, consultant, or small business owner. This means your ability to get paid is directly tied to how productive you are. As a freelancer, wasting time equals wasting money.
Here are some tips on how to stay focused as you move through the workday, while still enjoying all the unique benefits of working at home.

1. Respect Your Own Time


When you work at an office, family and friends seem to naturally respect your schedule. But when you’re working from home, you’ll inevitably get calls at 11:00 a.m. or be expected to handle the daily errands. I’m not saying you shouldn’t wait for the cable appointment or chat on the phone, but be mindful of how easy it is to have time ripped from your workday.
It’s important to set boundaries, if needed. People will respect your schedule, only if you respect it first.

2. Impose Time Limits on Specific Tasks


It’s easy to become distracted, particularly when dealing with a task that’s challenging or a bit dull. If you find yourself losing focus, tell yourself to dedicate just 15 more minutes to the task on hand. Knowing there’s an end in sight might inject new energy into the project. And if not, move on to something else and return to it when you’re in a better mindset.

3. Set Strict Deadlines


Ever wonder why you’re ultra productive when facing a tight deadline, while a simple task can take hours to complete? You might chalk this up to working well under pressure, but it could also be Parkinsons Law, which basically states that a task will expand to fill the time you can give it. Combat this phenomenon by imposing your own deadlines for specific tasks. These can be as complicated as finishing a proposal or as simple as responding to a client email.

4. Log Off for “Power Productivity” Hours


Digital distractions aren’t just limited to Facebook and YouTube. For most, the daily barrage of emails and IMs from friends and colleagues ends up being the day’s biggest time sink. If you’re stuck in your inbox, dedicate chunks of the day when you unplug from your phone and email to get work done. You can log back on afterward and power through the necessary responses.

5. Delineate Your Workspace


Ideally you can have an area dedicated as your office (and preferably with a door so you can shut out unwanted distractions). Creating boundaries not only helps you be more productive "at work," but also helps you decompress during your personal time.

6. Slowing Down? Change Your Environment


If you find yourself stuck (and you’ve already tried the “just 15 more minutes” tactic), change your environment. Go work at the café for an hour, or brainstorm at the park. A change in scenery can spark new ideas and give you newfound focus.

7. Conduct a Time Audit


Ever finish up the day and wonder where your time went? If you’re self-employed, it’s important to understand exactly how you’re using your time. Every so often, conduct a detailed audit of your day and keep track of what you did and how long it took. These audits can reveal great insights into your daily workflow and can help you make adjustments where needed — whether it’s getting help for your bookkeeping, dropping an overly demanding client, or condensing multiple trips to the grocery store.

8. Create Task Lists


I tend to have multiple lists running at any given time. One list keeps track of longer term goals (for example, the projects I need to complete by the end of the week or month). Then each morning I also create a focused outline for the day’s tasks. Try to keep your daily list as realistic and uncluttered as possible. Nothing can sap your motivation like staring at an overly ambitious list full of items you can’t possibly complete.

9. Make Your Breaks Count


Whether you’re working at home or in the office, it’s not possible to stay focused for hours on end. Breaks are an integral part of the workday, but make sure your free time counts. Have you ever denied yourself a trip to the gym or lunch with a friend “because you’re too busy?”
Chances are that on that very same day, you spent well over an hour browsing eBay, watching TV, looking at Facebook, checking your online bank account, or organizing your medicine cabinet. Busy work doesn’t accomplish anything and won’t recharge your batteries. So take your dog for a hike, take an actual lunch, or do whatever you enjoy. You’ll not only end up being happier, but more productive as well.

Deep: My Life In The Porn Industry

imgres.jpg  I just happened to stumble across this video on youtube the other night...  In the video an ex-porn star exposes the truth about the porn industry and I must say...  It ain't pretty!


According to compiled numbers from respected news and research organizations, every second $3,075.64 is being spent on pornography. Every second 28,258 internet users are viewing pornography. In that same second 372 internet users are typing adult search terms into search engines. Every 39 minutes a new pornographic video is being created in the U.S.

The porn industry is BIG BUSINESS!  It's also a risky business...

My Poetry


It's late and I'm up working the graveyard shift.  I'm listening to a call by Dani Johnson.  It's recorded, so you can listen to it HERE.  It is so moving so far!  It's entitled, "Beating The Odds."

I've been working for the past hour on displaying more pages on the home-page of my blog.  I could not figure out how to change that setting!  If any of my readers know how to make it to where more than one page displays on your home-page, please let me know.  It's buggin' the crap outta me!

Yesterday I found myself on myspace.  Before facebook I was a myspacaholic!  I was blogging way back then on the mypace platform.  I was reading some of my posts.  Lot's of it is my poetry.  Man!  I was so poetic back then.  I have to step my creative writing game up again!

I want to share some of my poems with you guys.  I hope you like it!  :)

I am Hip Hop and You're I AM...



Oh, you big time huh?
You a part of the master plan...
I am Hip Hop and You're I AM...
You know things others don't
And if they did...
They still wouldn't really understand.
You say, "What's so wrong?  They puttin' money in my hand."
You know they don't give a fuck about you, ya fam or ya crew
But they give you that loot...
You shoot for the stars and
They let you shine.
Meanwhile back at the ranch ya people is dyin'.
See while you walk around thinkin shit is funny, funny
You turnin' yo people into dummies, dummies...
Yo flow is salty
And yo show is bitter sweet.
You feed me shit
When I need meat.
The words you speak
leave me malnourished and weak.
And they play you on the airwaves every Got Damn week!
You deceive the people
But you steady sayin' WE
WE the people??
You ain't talkin' bout ME!
Cause I believe in unity
And you love to divide.
The rich get in for free
But the poor gotta buy.
You lie to the children.
You say that what's bad is good
And what's good is bad.
That shit make me so sad...
No.
That shit make me so Mad!
But never mad enough to sin.
I fight this battle with love
Cause love always win...

Immense pain and the disposal of it! Poem~

Current mood:artistic
Pain so immense that I wish to dispense it from my soul
So I think of the good times
Hoping to stop this crazy mind of mine
How you doin?
Are you okay?
I say "Yay"
But I lie...
No tears will I cry tomorrow
I pray to God, cause it's He I follow
Give me strength Lord to make it through them days when I can't fake it
I turn to you
Cause your love is truer than the words
"I love you"
Or
"I'm always thinkin' of you"
Better than that song we sang in church Sunday
That I sang all day Monday
Your love is like "Whoa!"
and you're a smooth operator, cause when I call on you I never hear
"Call me back later"
You heal me
You feel me
And never am I too emotional for you
So I'm pouring out my soul!
This immense pain must go!
In the name of Jesus!
Walk out the doe!
And don't you ever, ever come back no mo'!!
Whew....
I feel good~

MO~ 11/27/07

Again...

Lord, grant me the stregnth to not be moved or uprooted
may I stand firm and hold on to all those things that I've learned,
which you've taught me...
this world is so sick and the fog is so thick
sometimes it's hard to see through it
and so I fall and fumble and my world seems to spin and crumble
and yet you're always there... and you give an ear to my prayer
you say, "Be not afraid!"  and at your word I am strong... again...
ready to fight and ready to win... again...
this time I want to stay and fight until the end
never to put my sword down again, never to let my shield down and the evil one in agian...
I can't afford to let him and his crew take away what's been given to me by You
and though they are strong, you are stronger
and through they are smart, you are smarter
so grant me the wisdom to recognize those things that are sent forth to stabilize my demise...
may I recognize the lies and not fall victim to the many lusts this world thrusts at me
Son of Man!....  That would make me so happy and my joy full...
So...  once again with this paper and pen...
I ask the Father in the name of the Son to grant me all this...
As I put up my fists to fight... agian...

All praises to the Most High GOD in the name of my Lord and Savior JESUS CHRIST! AMEN...

Faith and Confession



Current mood:thankful
Oh how my mind runs me crazy sometime
it thinks of nothing good and brings light to all the strife in my life.
I refuse to let my mind be distressed
Not with all the good in my life
like the fact that I'm a mother and wife.
The ultimate sacrafice that was given for the remission of my sins...
This is what I vow to keep my focus on
until the day I'm done and gone.
I won't be dead because of my faith and confession.
I confess with my mouth and believe in my heart that I have a place in heaven. ~Mar 18, 2009

Current mood:loved
When you have that bright light
Shining bright on the inside
You can see the dark fight
Going on on the inside
Of the Man and Woman
Livin' life in the twilight
Of lies, greed, fashion
something thick, something handsom
Follow Him
Let it go, sit kick back
And watch how your river of life flow
Now you're out of the twilight
Armed to fight with a sick Blow!
If you lit... You understand
Aint life Grand?
Aint it awesome?
Floss the crown, wild out, act a fool in these streets
Let everybody in on how to live life sweet!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Daily Bread!  Mmmm Mmmm Good!
1John 3:1-3
Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God!  Therefore the world does not know us, because it did not know Him.  Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.  And everyone who has this hope in Him purifies himself, just as He is pure.

1John 3:16-19
By this we know love, because He laid his life for us.  And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.  But whoever has this world's goods and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his heart from him, how does the love of God abide in him?  My little children, let us not love in word or tongue, but in deed and in truth.
ONE LOVE

Time Out!

Current mood:amorous
I need to calm down and listen to the sound of leaves rustle
I need a break from this jungle we call LA
Where it's all work and no play
Where everyday a youngen layin' down for good
From gunspray in the Hood
Where those Sirens sound off
People get locked up for shippin' pounds off
To take care of they seeds
Or to push that E-class down tha block
Just to get stopped by the cops
I need a break!
'Cause I got a stomach ache from the drama
People hatin' on each other
Brother agaist Brother
Daughter against Mother
Son against Father
I need a word from the author
'Cause he keep me standin' tall through it all
When haters try to tear me down
Still I stand, firm on solid ground!
I need a break!
So I'ma rest in tha Lord today
And just chill with tha Fam, My Man and My Bay Bay

Sick Woman (PMS) Poem

Current mood:blessed
You did nothin' when yo' woman was sick
It hurt like a hard hit!
Wonder if you love me like you said you did
There's nothin' left to say
I don't want to hear it... Show me love
Like back then, back in tha day
When you gave me back rubs
When you showed me mad love
You protected me from the pain
When I hurt you hurt
Remember?  
That's what you said that day
Your judgements cloudy now
You can't even see when there's hurt in my heart
You say you're an ameteaur
But you were a pro a stealin' my heart

Poem to my Husband

Current mood:amorous
I remember praying for you
Tears fall from my eyes as I thank God for our Love
So rare and true
I remember praying for you
I call you Heaven Sent 'cause since we met
You been tha truth
And you prove it to me everytime you spit a ryme in tha booth
I remember praying for you
You work hard, a workaholic
You do all that you can
To take care of me and your daughter, plus you a man with a plan
I remember praying for you
Your touch still makes me tremble
Your voice still soothes my soul
We've been together for so long
But our love will never grow old
And I remember praying for you
Don't ever think I'll trip hard enought o leave
I'm stayin' with you
Plus I'll always be true
'Cause I remember praying for you

Mo  08/07/08  I love you Boo!

Sometimes Love is Like....

Current mood:rushed
Love is
Love sick
Love struck
Loves like....hmmm...
Love sucks
Love hurts
Loveless hearts ache
For goodness sake make it stop!
We like
We love
We kiss
We hug
We trust
We TOUCH...
Or We make love in love
We live
We learn
Get burned
We learn
We churn inside for revenge
We live
We forgive
We love once again
and yearn for love in return......

Lovin’ Is...To me...

Current mood:indescribable
Lovin' is
Lovin' life
Lovin' roles of  Mom and Wife

I'm lovin this
Love's Marvelous!

Current mood:determined
Today I will love like I loved no other day I lived
If you hate me I’ma offer you Gods greatest gift

I’ma keep on lovin and I won’t talk smack
Everywhere I go, I’ma keep a smile on my face
And if you need help then I will righfully take my place
And lend a helping hand
Not doin’ so would be a disgrace
Cause’ when it’s all said and done it’s God I gotta face
What I look like givin him this lame excuse
Like how I let you steal my Joy, how I was mad at you
I know better, so really I ain’t got no excuse
Today I will to keep on lovin’ you
